Drama, without question.

One of my favorite Yes albums, and a very special and unique one at that!

Yeah, Drama is very good, better than Tales...

The Sentinel is really underrated, though. So my vote goes to PallasClap

damn tough vote.. the reason I sat on it till the end


giving it to the APP since they trail. but could have flipped a coin between it and Drama which by far is the most underrated Yes album.. different of course.. but no less brilliant as albums like CTTE.

well ... if you remember. .the High Priest of Avant decided to take a mental vacation during the band contests .. and leaving his poor bands milling around in the field leaderless... and thus fodder to the great prog reaper... that is why the history books will put Ian with the worst generals in history like Percival! Thumbs Up Gamelin!!ClapClap and of course our favorite...whose defeat nearly matched the disaster the Rio-avants bands suffered ....CUSTER!!!LOL Cool

As the High Priestess of AvantLOL, I cannot but vote for one of the original RIO Five, the great Univers Zero. Though the band did not get ahead in the Battle of the Bands, at least their album will!

UZ album was an easychoice for me. Never been a fan of Drama or Tales. Sentinel would be my next choice.

The Alan Parsons Project, Tales of Mystery and Imagination Edgar Allan Poe.

When he rides, my fears subside.
For darkness turns once more to light.
Through the skies, his white horse flies.
To find a land beyond the night.

Damn ... post disappeared. I think I'm forgetting to to Post Reply before I vote.

You Tube will not let me listen to the Univers Zero album for some reason but I've found it elsewhere but Woodwind gets me every time. Drama is a better album than I expected it to be though I should not have been all that surprised. Parson output always left me cold and Pallas didn't do much to dispell the chill.

I would love to put another vote in for Pallas but I've got to go for "Tales of Mystery and Imagination", it has such a great vibe to it and needs the votes so much more than Pallas.
